My previous relationship wasn’t exactly a bed of roses. Everything went smoothly until I decided to be stupid and give up everything. So karma bit me back in my ass and taught me a lesson or two. But even so, karma is still kind. I met an amazing man who heard all my stories of drama ...

So, Christmas is around the corner and I’m so excited! But one thing that always bogs me down before Christmas is the GIFTS! I always try to give presents that are practical or mean something special to the person I’m giving to but it is always so hard to find the perfect one. If you’...

Have you girls seen this ad on the streets…? I’ve seen this around but I thought it was just another one Strip’s quirky ads (I love their ads!) until the other day, Pearlin from Strip, dropped me an email with more information about this and invited me to join their anti-fur movement!...

And then there was the F1 race where I went for the finals but didn’t really watch too. Hazel and I couldn’t see anything so we just sat by the river, complaining about life giving us lemons. We were there so early cos Vernon was doing a show for F1 so we were just waiting around for ...

I was asked the other day: “How does it feel to be 22?” Honestly, it’s not that old if you ask me. I’m only 22. Neither am I very young any more. I keep thinking that I’m 17, so that is how far back I’m stuck in, hahaha. Anyways, onto the celebrations!!! Vernon is the sweetest! He got...
